The New Amazon Attribution Tool Will Show You Why Amazon Ads Are Better

Amazon is so confident in the success of its ads that it is now testing an attribution pixel that will show advertisers how ads on its sites measure up against those on rival sites. According to Digiday, it is called the Amazon Attribution tool. The test invites only advertisers that sell on Amazon, not through it, according to Digiday.

The Amazon Attribution tool will allegedly help advertisers see just how effective their Amazon campaign is compared to their campaigns on other sites. Since it’s so challenging to achieve high search rankings on Amazon due to the massive competition for top spots, Amazon recognizes that advertisers may give up and take their businesses elsewhere. The company wants to prove that the effort is well worth it by supplying undeniable metrics.

Digiday says some of the conversion metrics advertisers can choose from with the new tool include page views, purchase rate, and sales.

“This move will encourage brands to drive more ads to Amazon because they’ll have attribution parity,” Connor Folley, former Amazon executive and founder of search ad platform Downstream, told Digiday. “Brands will see how much better their Amazon product detail pages convert compared to their own site. From an ROI perspective, they’ll be hard pressed to justify driving traffic elsewhere as a result.”

Digiday points out that Google, up until now, had an advantage over Amazon because it offers attribution for measuring both Google and Amazon campaigns. Amazon releasing its own attribution tool will help build advertiser loyalty.

“Owning your own attribution lets you grade your own homework,” Ben Tregoe, senior vice president of revenue at ad tech company Nanigans, told Digiday. “The reason each platform is intent on having its own attribution system is that they know the other platforms cannot be trusted to properly credit ads outside their own platform. Google is always going to say [its] ads were more effective in driving the conversion just as Facebook and Amazon will.”

Earlier this summer, Amazon also began testing Sponsored Products placement to external sites.
